Patient's question:
Recently, I often experience pain again in the left testicle. I want to know what disease causes the pain in the left testicle.Doctor's answer:
Testicular pain may be a sign of orchitis. There are many causes of orchitis, such as patients with mumps, who can develop secondary orchitis, leading to recurrent testicular pain and swelling; gonorrhea is currently one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases, and in severe cases, it can cause orchitis, resulting in testicular pain and swelling; chronic prostatitis can also cause testicular pain, characterized by unilateral pain, mostly dull or pulling pain, persistent in nature, and microscopic examination of prostatic fluid shows a large number of white blood cells. The patients are mostly young and middle-aged adults, with the elderly being less common.
